What you lookin' at, mista? *Mystic War tie in*

[Dazzler]

"Yes, that is Colossus," Alison said to Sasha as she kept looking at the menu. "I think you met him once before he and his sister went to visit their family. I'm sure he'll be back soon."

Lu looked at everyone and then looked at the dagger again. "That thing looks very familiar. Let me see if I have something in my office..." he said as he started to go to the back. "I'll take your orders when I get back. Ying, you said Harada demon clan?"

"Yes. They apparently helped kill some Irish king, and the king's handlers sent an assassin to kill them. I look like her. At least that's what some fool said to me  before I was nearly impaled by that blade."

"Sasha, this sounds very bad and very familiar," Alison said as she looked at her friend. "I kind of hope Lu doesn't find what he is looking for. I just want to eat and get this stupid dagger back to the team. What are you hungry for?"

[Harley]

"If they keep looking at us like that, Arkady, I'm going to pound someone with my bat. They can't even take a joke when it comes from us," Harley said as she looked between Omega Red, the menu and the rest of the uptight X-Men that were cramping her style tonight. "You'd think I took their puppies or their stuffed teddy bears the way they act. But if they want something dirty handled, they call us. Pfft! Whatta buncha hypocrites."

Harley rolled her eyes as she set the menu down. "Maybe we should see if we can open that portal and let some fun folks in. I don't mean Lizzie Borden or anything like that. Maybe Bonnie and Clyde? They might be fun!"

[Omega Red]

               ''Everyone always blames us for everything,'' Omega Red muttered. He smiled. ''Maybe you can use your bat after we eat.'' Omega Red tilted his head in confusion after he heard about Bonnie and Clyde. ''The bank robbers?'' He began to smile again. ''Sounds like fun.''

[Sasha Sadovsky]

                Sasha smiled and nodded. ''I do remember Colossus,'' he said. He heard what Harley said about the X-Men not taking a joke. Sasha focused on Omega Red and Harley. ''What are you two planning? You're up to something,'' he said.

            Sasha heard Alison's question. ''Chicken. Maybe orange chicken? Won ton soup? Vegetable lo mein! Definitely vegetable lo mein!''

[Dazzler]

"Did I hear you two say Bonnie and Clyde?" Alison asked as Harley giggled and pulled out her phone.

"D'uh, of course you did!" Harley said with a big smile as she opened up the Netflix app and showed her search for the Bonnie and Clyde movie. "I was telling Arkady how much I love that movie!"

"Of course you do," Alison replied as she looked at the phone. "You probably like those weird movies about the women in prison, too."

"Take that back! I do not like those old sexploitation films! Gross! Arkady, maybe we should head out of here," Harley said as she grabbed her phone back from Alison.

"Geez, sorry," Dazzler said as she motioned for Harley to sit back down. "Stupid assumption on my part. Sit and have your dinner."

"Well, you know, if you assume it makes an..." Harley giggled as Alison groaned.

"I know! We all know!" Alison said as she looked back at Sasha. "What you chose sounds great. I didn't mean to tick her off. I just wish someone would guard that stupid portal. I do not want to see Napoleon tap dancing or doing the macarena!" 

[Omega Red]

                     Omega Red's eyes widened after he heard Alison's voice. He began to frown. *Our fun is going to be spoiled!* he thought. Omega Red glanced from Alison to Harley the minute women in prison films were mentioned. ''I'll go along with anything you want to do, Harley. We can eat here or depart.''

[Sasha Sadovsky]

                         ''Bonnie and Clyde?'' Sasha muttered. Did he want to know about women in prison movies? Sasha began to glance at the portal. ''Now I'm wondering if anyone or anything else stepped out of the portal!'' he said. His eyes became wide again. He scanned the area, but he couldn't see any new people. 

                         Sasha turned to Harley and Omega Red. *It's almost as if they are toddlers not being supervised. Are they willing to cause mischief even with Nemesis around?* he thought. Sasha glanced at Alison. ''Perhaps we should return those two to Nemesis. They won't cause mischief when he's around.''

[Mr. Scratch and Miss Itch]

                Mr. Scratch and Miss Itch smiled after they stepped into the restaurant. They couldn't seek revenge on Spider-Woman aka Mattie Franklin on empty stomachs. Although they were pale with fangs and long hair, they dressed in matching outfits. Garments consisting of black and red coats with hats, boots, etc. Their canes completed their costumes. Their eyes settled on Harley and Omega Red.

                After approaching them, Miss Itch and Mr. Scratch continued to smile. They removed their hats and bowed.

                  ''Greetings. I am Miss Itch. This is Mr. Scratch. My spouse.'' She looked from Omega Red to Harley. One expression of interest suddenly formed. 

                  ''You two seem close. Are you married like we are? Do you have children?'' Miss Itch inquired.


 

[Harley]

Harley gulped as the new couple spoke to her and Omega Red. "Us? Married? Omega Red is a real sweetie to me, but nope, afraid not. And as for kids..."

As her right hand tightened around the top of her bat, Harley thought back to a part of her past she didn't want to bring to light all too often. She had a daughter who was now about five. The tot's dad was an old boyfriend who had more than a few dozen screws loose. Harley had given the girl to her sister to raise, and she went to visit as crazy old Aunt Harley as often as she could.

"Nope, but I have a niece I love to pieces. She lives in another part of the country, so I don't see her as often as I'd like. And," she smacked her head as she looked at Miss Itch and Mr. Scratch, "where are my manners? I'm Harley, and this is Omega Red. Where did you get the fancy threads? Custom job?" 

[Mr. Scratch and Miss Itch]

              It was fine with Miss Itch and Mr. Scratch if Harley and Omega Red weren't married. Interest caused Miss Itch's eyes to widen for a few seconds. ''A niece? That's good to hear,'' she said. Miss Itch continued to smile at Omega Red and Harley. That was when she heard what Harley asked about her outfit. 

            Miss Itch and Mr. Scratch exchanged glances. They sat near Omega Red and Harley. They continued to frown. 

            ''My wife and I don't exactly remember how we were transformed. We mainly remember wandering the world in search of a cure for our daughters. Our appearances were altered and we received new abilities.'' 

[Sasha Sadovsky]

                 Sasha's eyes widened the minute he saw a very unfamiliar man with a woman. He tilted his head in confusion as soon as they addressed Harley and Omega Red. He glanced at Alison. ''Are you familiar with those two?'' Sasha wondered if they were going to cause mischief with Omega Red and Harley. ''Does Nemesis know about those two?''
